Default Under hood pics of my 408

I just put my 408 back together after having my short block rebuilt. While the motor was out I had my engine bay hit with some base color and some clear. Looks way better now. Here are a coupl eof pics I took along the way.

Nice.

I can't wait till I get my new engine built and the old yanked out. The crap paint in the engine bay pisses me off. I can't wait to fill all the holes and spray it all black.

Looks good!

From what I can see it looks good, I'd like to see bigger, brighter pics, flash is your friend...

What did it cost to get it done? Did you remove EVERYTHING?

What's your DCR on that setup? That cam has got to have a really lazy IVC to be running 12.1:SCR.

It looks to me that you might have an oil leak. I thought you were building a motor for the TA not a Harley.
